have a daughter who just finished her PC tour in Paraguay and is traveling. She left Buenos Aires one week ago to travel 24 hours south in Argentina to meet two other Peace Corps comrades.
I have not heard from her since Dec 28, and had asked her to email me every few days. Should I be at a point of concern? Some of you PC alums must have traveled when you were done. Can you give me any reasurance?
Thank you K Painter
